ridge tillage



Dear colleagues,
Next year I intend to establish a research program investigating ridge 
tillage for small grain production in southern Australia's cropping zone. 
Herbicide resistant weeds are now becoming a the major constraint to 
production in reduced till systems, and weeds in general remain the main 
impediment to more widespread organic production.
Unfortunately, all the information I have been able to source regarding 
ridge till relates to the corn/soybean rotations, which does not 
necessarily translate to our cereal/oilseed/grain legume systems. If 
anyone can help with scientific and/or general information on small grain 
production on ridges, or sources of that I can pursue, it would be much 
appreciated. 

Regards,
